: I am a 15 year old guy and feel that I need to build up my strength . What should I do to get my arns stronger ?
hey jon, i know what it's like to be weak and skinny.
i once was myself but i took up weight training summer
and after months of hard work, my upper body began to
grow in size and i became stronger as well. they key
thing is to stress your muscles and for overload to occur.
if you want larger arms then i suggest doing some biceps
and triceps exercises like biceps curls and bench dips
for your triceps. my philosophy when weight training
is to do as many as you can until muscle failure.
another words, keep on doing it until you can't. also
be sure to eat a lot more than normal! weight training
is useless unless you have the protein to back it up.
lastly, never give up! al
